Zhan Beihan seemed to have forgotten about the carrier pigeons. He didn't ask, and Xiao Lingyue didn't mention it either.
During these three days, Zhan Beihan was very busy.
Xiao Lingyue stayed in the palace to concentrate on being with her two children. She also took the time to meet with Meng Wenhao and asked about the progress of the renovation of the county lord's palace next door.
Meng Wenhao and Qing Luo came here together, and they couldn't help but complain when they saw her.
"Miss Shen, the County Lord's Mansion next door belongs to you, not mine, right? Why do I feel that you, the master, care less about it than I, the one who gets paid to do things?"
Qingluo covered her mouth and snickered.
During this period of time, besides taking care of Beibei, she spent the rest of her time running between Prince Yi's Mansion and the County Lord's Mansion.
On the one hand, Xiao Lingyue found something for her to do and asked her to keep an eye on the renovation of the County Lord's Mansion.
On the other hand, he is also cooperating with Meng Wenhao.
After all, Meng Wenhao was from Eastern Qi and was not familiar with the place in Northern Qin. If it was inconvenient for him to come to Xiao Lingyue, Qingluo could also help.
Over time, Qing Luo and Meng Wenhao got to know each other very well, and they became a lot more cheerful.
Xiao Lingyue smiled awkwardly: "I am also busy during this period, and I really don't have time..."
Meng Wenhao complained: "Then you should go and take a look, right? After all, it is your own mansion."
Xiao Lingyue touched her nose and asked simply: "How is the progress now? How far has it been in cultivation?"
"Are you still practicing?" When Meng Wenhao said this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and said speechlessly.
"Even the land is almost cleared!"
Xiao Lingyue: "...What's going on?"
Meng Wenhao looked around and found that the servants of Prince Yi's Mansion were not there.
Immediately complained to Xiao Lingyue in a low voice: "It's not the housekeeper named Zhou in Prince Yi's Mansion! Miss Shen, did you leave the renovation of the County Lord's Mansion to him before? Do you know how he repaired the mansion for you? Of?"
"Uncle Zhou?"
Xiao Lingyue asked doubtfully, "He has always done things safely. Is there any problem?"
Meng Wenhao: "It's safe, but it's too safe! It was originally agreed that the old house would be demolished, rebuilt on the same site, and the front and rear gardens and corridors redone. As a result, the foreman measured the location and was ready to start construction.
Butler Zhou came over and looked around, but said no, the garden must be demolished.
Wait until the garden is demolished.
He also said that the ground was not good and had to be resurfaced.
The ground was pried up again.
He also said that the soil underneath had a peculiar smell and that it had to be shoveled and replaced with new soil.
So it took a lot of tossing until now.
Not to mention the house, even three inches of the land in your county lord's mansion have been shoveled away, and baskets of soil are being carried in to re-pave the floor!"
Xiao Lingyue: "Uh..." She was simply amazed.
Look at Qingluo.
Qing Luo nodded helplessly: "Butler Zhou did indeed say that, because the young lady gave him the task of repairing the County Lord's Mansion. It was Butler Zhou who made the decision on how to repair it and where to repair it, and the craftsmen below also listened to him."
Xiao Lingyue held her forehead: "..."
Beibei on the side snorted coldly: "Butler Zhou is trying every means to prevent my mother from moving out, so she can only continue to live in Prince Yi's Mansion!"
Han Han whispered: "Grandpa Zhou is also kind-hearted. He must want to repair my mother's county master's mansion..."
Beibei glared at him: "To build a house, the land needs to be shoveled. Even the palace repairs don't need to be like this. Is he planning to build a white jade palace for his mother?"
Hanhan: "..."
The little guy thought for a while, tilted his head and asked: "Mom, do you like the White Jade Palace? It's not impossible to build it. If you want to build it, build it to the best!"
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
Meng Wenhao, Qingluo: "..."
Are all the people in your Prince Yi's palace, from masters to slaves, so wealthy?
Who still remembers that at the beginning, Xiao Lingyue just planned to renovate the house so that it could be lived in?
